Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese authorities decided to form the strategic alliance for defense, trade and energy. Russia will deliver oil to China and China will collaborate with Russia in Geopolitical strategic defense of Euresia.

Russia's Security Council and the Military Commission of the Chinese Communist Party's Politburo will form a forum and will work closely to make sure both countries can create and maintain the necessary military and political infrastructure as well as coordination.

According to some international think tanks, sources close to Russia's Security Council say recommending countermeasures to check the U.S. geopolitical "offensive" in Eurasia will be perhaps the forum's most important job.

China and Russia are planning joint military exercises. The joint naval maneuvers are scheduled to be held in August in China's Liaodong Peninsula.

Distinctly the world is broken into definite alliances. The first is the US led alliance (thirty or so countries providing military in Iraq). The second one is the European Alliance. There is a considerable overlap between NATO, EU and US led alliance.

The third emerging alliance is BRICS - Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa. The newly formed Russia-China alliance provides Putin the necessary critical mass to move ahead and formally create the BRICS alliance.

Recently Brazil moved ahead and formed a business alliance with Venezuela. China and Russia also formed alliance with Venezuela. In spite of Washington’s opposition, Russia plans to provide defense hardware to Venezuela and nuclear reactors to Iran.

India is watching closely Washington’s decision on providing Pakistan with F16. Delivering F16 to Pakistan will make India take a U-turn from its pro-world posture. The Congress party in India has very close relations with Kremlin for many years.

Putin’s current goal is to create the strategic BRIC alliance that will eventually become the strongest trade and military block in the world.

Bush Administration will not sit idle either. Dr. Rice, the current US Secretary of State will take counter measures specially trying to bring India, Pakistan, South Africa and Brazil into US alliances.

The possibility of another cold war between US led alliance and the BRICS looms in the horizon.

The Europeans will act initially as a keeper of the middle ground. The cold war will not be similar to one between America and old Soviet Union. While Putin is putting together the BRICS alliance, he does shy away from meeting US President George Bush. There will be cordial relations between China and America, India and America as well as Russia and America. The covert war will be in the area of trade, commerce and finance. That is where India and China stand out. Russian oil is a great factor. Russia-Venesuela-Iran forms CRICS mail oil and Gas resource.

In the 1960s, Dmitri Polyakov, an informant on the Soviet Union, leaked to the CIA that Sino-Russian relationship has deteriorated.

This intelligence report prompted the U.S. to normalize relationship with mainland China, which contributed to the Soviet Union's dissolution and China's economic boom decades later.

Much of China's economic success can be attributed to exports to the U.S. and foreign direct investments from the U.S.

Now, economic relationships between these two countries have worsened -- trade imbalance and debt monetization are two issues -- and new realities may drive China back to the arms of Russia.

The new reality is that China needs energy and Russia is only too happy to supply it.

Russia is the second largest oil exporter (behind Saudi Arabia) and the largest oil producer in the world. Under the government of Vladimir Putin, the energy sector's size relative to the overall economy grew and became an increasingly important asset for Moscow.

This burgeoning sector is responsible for the bulk of the Russian government's revenues and accumulation of foreign exchange reserves. It is a key foreign policy tool for Putin and funds his domestic policy. Energy production is simply too important for the Russian government, which is unlikely to cut back or cede control over it.

China, for its part, may have already become the largest energy consumer in the world in 2009. While the U.S. still tops the world in oil consumption and imports, China in 2010 imported 239 million tons of oil, up 17.5 percent from 2009, reported the General Administration of Customs.

Imports in 2010 accounted for 52 percent of China's total consumption. By 2020, analysts think that figure will jump to 65 percent. Having to import over 50 percent of one's oil is a "globally recognized energy alert level," said China Daily, a state-run newspaper.

Furthermore, China is already wary of its primary source of oil imports, which comprises of shipments from the Middle East. This route takes the precious cargo though the Strait of Hormuz, across the Indian Ocean, and up the Strait of Malacca. At any of these points, China-bound oil shipments face potential threats from foreign naval powers.

It's thus easy to imagine China, one of the largest buyers of energy, and Russia, a leading exporter of it, becoming natural friends.

Indeed, the Sino-Russian relationship is getting close and closer.

Last November, China and Russian decided to dump the U.S. dollar and instead use their domestic currencies for bilateral trade.

Since January 1 2011, Russia has also pumped 390,000 tonnes of crude oil to China. This Sino-Russo pipeline is expected to transport 15 million tonnes of crude oil per year until 2030.

No body cares for the US. America is irrelevant and impotent. They can only bomb small countires like Libya, yeah....
